Group C: Slovenia, Denmark, Serbia, England

[longers]

We may as well have no midfield

Rice & Trent is shocking combo

 

[TheBigIguana]

This is why England should stop this way of playing. They’ve not conceded a chance but you’ve got no room for anything crazy to happen and something did.

 

[Jamiednm]

Sub Southgate off at half time.

Its the tactics that hold this team back, not the players.

 

[Milkman]

Score and sit back. Southgate is one negative tosspot

He's not got any idea how to get a team of talented individuals to play with any kind of joy. The less said about Trent Kroos the better too.

 

[Runub]

Pickford angry. Not surprised

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Hmmm, Maybe Scotland

 

[Obes]

Pickford will be blamed for that. Not Sir Harry Kane and his suicidal cross field pass outside our area.

He should never have been anywhere near that area of the pitch to begin with.

Midfield are hiding and taking no responsibility to get us up the pitch. Get TAA out of there.

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Pickford is fuming.

 

[Dharma]

Alexander-Arnold needs replacing with an actual footballer

 

[Milkman]

This is somehow worse than the Serbia second half.

 

[Chegsy]

Pickford angry. Not surprised

Denmark have free license to have a go from 25 yards in.

 

[Drico]

This is my friendly periodic reminder that losing this and finishing second brings a route to glory of Germany (definitely), Spain (likely), Portugal (possibly), and France (perhaps).

Winning the group brings you a match against a third-placed side, possibly Italy, and then France...

 

[navidson]

Any cover from midfield like?

 

[Look to the future]

Shearer hates Pickford

 

[NorthernBlue]

Midfield is non existent here.
